  Chapter 43 Old knowledge!

   "The Great Seal records events, and never kneels when seeing officials."

   "Uncle Duan doesn't want to be an official?"

  After Lei Meng and Chen Biao left, Cao Xin looked at Duan Chong curiously.

  Although he himself does not want to take the imperial examination to pursue an official career, and it is impossible for him to join the Embroidery Department for the time being, it does not prevent him from urging Duan Chong to join.

  Think about it, with Duan Chong's strength, it is not difficult to be promoted to 'Iron Talisman Envoy' and 'Embroidered Clothes Division' if he makes a few great achievements in the Embroidery Department.

  At the beginning of the establishment of the Xijing Department, there was hope of winning a position of real power.

  Once Duan Chong occupies a high position in the Xijing Department, Cao Xin will be more confident in punishing the villains and doing justice for the sky in the future.

   This is called 'There are people in the DPRK who like to commit crimes'!

but-

   "Official career is as deep as the sea."

   "Where there is freedom in the world."

Duan Chong shook his head and didn't say much to Cao Xin, a child. He sent Cao Xin away before he said to Ning Shuhua with a serious face: "I know that Lei Meng, he is the eldest disciple of Master Lu of the 'Nine Curved Sword'. During the years, he had the title of 'Little Nine Songs', and he has already obtained the true biography of Master Lu."

  One of the seven sons of Fushan!

  'Nine-curved sword' Lu Buyi!

   "Is this person actually a disciple of Fushan?"

  Ning Shuhua was taken aback.

   "There can be no mistake."

   "I went to Fushan Mountain with my master in the early years, met Uncle Lu, and also met Lei Meng. At that time, Lei Meng was young and talented, and everyone focused on him. I was unknown, and I was only behind others."

   "So I know him and he doesn't know me."

   Duan Chong frowned slightly.

   It is not because of the disparity in status that was neglected at the beginning.

   but because—

  The 'Fushan' where Lei Meng is located and the 'Qishan' where he was born are both one of the 'Seven Mountain Sword Sects'.

  I think back then, the Tianshan school was famous all over the world, and the martial arts world was respected.

  Later split, the seven swords went down to Tianshan Mountain, each with unique knowledge, occupied the seven major mountains in the north and south, and founded seven factions—

  Qishan, Fushan, Pengshan, Wuxian, Jinhu, Swagger, Qingqiu.

  People call it "Seven Mountain Sword Sect".

  In the 20 to 30 years since the separation of the seven factions, a whole generation had frictions and conflicts, but they finally moved towards unity.

  Same clan and origin, naturally close.

  To this day, for many years, the Seven Mountain Sword Sect has been united in the same breath.

  Although conflicts and frictions are still unavoidable, they are generally consistent with the outside world and have close contacts.

  With Duan Chong's current embarrassing situation, encountering a disciple of the 'Seven Mountain Sword Sect' like Lei Meng is really a disaster rather than a blessing.

   "Since Lei Meng is the eldest disciple of Uncle Lu, how can he join the Embroidery Division?"

  Ning Shuhua was puzzled.

  'Fushan' is now hidden as the head of the 'Seven Mountain Sword Sect', and it is also the first and second rank of the famous sect in the martial arts world.

  How could it be associated with the imperial court?

   "Master Bai, the head of Fushan Mountain, has always been ambitious. In the early years, he was agitating for the unity of the seven factions, reuniting Tianshan Mountain, and regaining the supreme position of martial arts."

  “Although I have suffered repeated setbacks, my ambition has not diminished.”

   "Befriending the Embroidery Division may be his next move."

  Duan Chong didn't quite understand either.

  But for a person like 'Lei Meng', without the permission of the teacher, at least the tacit consent, it is absolutely impossible to join the 'Embroidered Clothes Division' privately.

   Among them, there must be a lot of calculations.

   It's just that Duan Chong is now an outcast from Qishan Mountain, living in seclusion in the city, far away from the rivers and lakes, and the news from various sources is not well informed, so it is hard to guess what activities Fushan and Xiuyisi have.

   Back to the moment.

   "Lei Meng still doesn't know our identities, but he has the dual identities of 'Fushan' and 'Embroidered Clothes Division'. Since he has noticed me, he will definitely investigate in the future."

   "Things are not good!"

   Duan Chong sighed.

  He lives in seclusion in Xijing City, and ordinary people cannot find out his details.

  For example, Chen Biao.

  For example, Cai Shuibang.

   More than two months have passed, and there has been no progress.

  But if Lei Meng made a move, it would be different.

   "Senior brother going down the mountain is my Qishan internal affairs, even if the Fushan seven sons are in front of me, I can't control it."

   "The Embroidery Department inspects illegal affairs in the Jianghu, and the brothers abide by the discipline and the law. If Lei Meng fails to recruit, do you still dare to harbor resentment and deliberately retaliate if you fail?"

  Ning Shuhua was upright and fearless.

  …

   Into the night.

   Cao's family.

  Cao Ren was talking to Cao Xin about the latest news gathered by Lu Damiao and others in the evening.

   "The Embroidery Division will establish an official office in Xijing City."

   "The head arresters from Luoxiu and Zhige counties were seconded, and the head arresters from the other 15 counties are also on their way. The Xijing Department has made a big move."

"Lu Damiao got the news from Liu Tutou, it is said that the case of 'Tiedan Shenhou' has been handed over to the Embroidery Department, and the Xijing Department is not only recruiting soldiers, but also summarizing various cases, saying that it is going to hit the key points The gangsters in the rivers and lakes are included in the most wanted list, which is called the 'black list' within the Embroidery Division."

   "'Tiedan Shenhou' temporarily ranks third in the 'Black List'."

   There is a lot of news, most of which revolve around the "Guo Sheng case", "Iron Dan Shenhou" and "Xijing Department of Embroidery Department".

  From July last year to the present, in more than half a year, the brothers have hired 18 families and sponsored 21 people to enter major martial arts halls to practice martial arts.

  The earliest ones have already developed some tricks.

  The best of them, such as Lu Damiao, Xie Changlin, Zou Long and Zou Hu, were managed by Cao Ren to work in the Luoxiu County Yamen and successfully broke into the interior.

  By Lu Damiao et al.

  Apprentice through the martial arts hall.

  Through their respective family members who walk the streets and alleys to make a living.

nowadays-

  Official.

   Rivers and lakes.

   Marketplace.

   Three aspects, three dimensions.

  The prototype of an intelligence network has been initially built.

  Cao Ren would gather 22 people every few days, and sometimes a few boys from each family would also gather for an enlarged meeting. Through the gathering, information from various sources would be collected, so as to understand all aspects of intelligence.

  Most of the time, there is no specific direction, and it is very casual to talk about where it is.

  But sometimes Cao Ren and Cao Xin will deliberately guide them to get the news they want.

   For example these days.

  Mostly it revolves around the "Tiedan Shenhou" and "Guo Sheng case". It just so happens that Lu Damiao is following Liu Tutou to handle this case, which is the first-hand news.

  In addition to the explosiveness of the subject matter itself, everyone is very interested. We usually chat about it in martial arts gyms and at home.

   Diverge.

Recycle.

   Make Cao Xin know the world without going out.

   This time, he even found out about the 'Embroidery Department' and the 'Xijing Department', which was more than he learned from Duan Chong and Lei Meng's conversation.

   "Embroidery Department."

   "What does elder brother think of Embroidery Division?"

  Cao Xin casually learned about the progress of the "Guo Sheng case", then changed the subject and talked about the "Xijing Department".

   "What do you think?"

   "This seems to be a government office that handles Jianghu cases, right? Did we talk about it last year?"

  Cao Ren didn't understand what Cao Xin meant.

  But Cao Ren has heard of the title of 'Embroidery Department'.

  Last year, one of the topics that he and Cao Xin took the initiative to guide was 'Embroidery Department'. They chatted for several days in a row, so he had an impression.

  “In Daliang, if I wanted to be an official, I had to study for the imperial examination or join the army.”

   "Now that we have the Embroidery Division, there is another way out."

"I don't have any opinions for the time being, but Lu Damiao, Xie Changlin and the others, in the yamen and in the martial arts hall, are very attracted to the Embroidery Department, even many martial arts masters, many head arresters, and squad leaders. If there is a chance, They are definitely willing to join the Embroidery Department, looking forward to gaining an official position."

  Cao Ren thought for a while, and said again.

  In the official-based society of Daliang, there are thousands of people who are pursuing and yearning for even the positions of Jiupin patrol inspector and Ku ambassador.

  Whoever enters the Embroidery Division, is expected to be an official, honoring the lintel and honoring the ancestors. Of course, everyone envies and wants to enter.

  In a word—

   There is no shortage of people in the Embroidery Division!

  What they lack is a master, or a 'connected person'.

  For example, Chen Biao, he is the deputy leader of the Caishui Gang, he has a lot of power in the Caishui Gang, and has a lot of contacts in Xijing City, so Lei Meng was the first to recruit him.

   But connections alone are not enough.

  The Embroidery Division is arresting the murderous masters of the rivers and lakes head-on, and the family must have strong masters.

  Thus, Lei Meng heard that Duan Chong was outstanding in martial arts, and he could compete 50-50 with the four masters of the Cai Shui Gang, and the second one he recruited was Duan Chong.

   Unfortunately, Duan Chong declined.

  But Duan Chong and Chen Biao are all figures of a certain level.

   Further down.

  For example, Cao Ren, Lu Damiao, Xie Changlin and other young children who have just started practicing martial arts, the Embroidery Division didn't even bother to take a look.

Even for the level of the masters of the major martial arts halls, with good martial arts skills and certain connections, they can only start from the first-level scribes of 'You Xing' at most when entering the Embroidery Division, and most of them still have to start from the lowest level of 'Wrestlers' Wait for the handyman to start climbing up.

On the contrary, Liu Rusong, Guo Sheng and others are head arresters in one county, who have experience in investigating cases and have a lot of contacts in a county. This is the main target of the Embroidery Department. 'Xiaoyin Records'.

   But once you join the Embroidery Division and specialize in Jianghu affairs, in terms of authority, a small seal recorder or even a big seal recorder may not be able to compare with a county head arrester.

  Chicken head.

   Pteris.

   Which choice is really difficult.

  Liu Rusong and others may find it difficult to make a decision for a while.

  Ke Duan Chong, why is he hesitating? !

   "Uncle Duan has a mysterious origin, clearly strong but overly cautious."

   "According to my guess, I am afraid that I have provoked a powerful enemy."

   "Since that's the case, it's better to join the Embroidery Department directly. With the position in hand, even if the enemy comes to the door in the future, the other party will have three points of scruples."

   "Even if Uncle Duan gains a certain status in the Xijing Department, and he has hundreds of stars and warriors under his command, who are not as powerful as the leader of a gang, what enemies are there to be afraid of?"

   "Uncle Duan is merciful if you don't kill him!"

  Cao Xin is teaching Cao Ren the skills of speaking.

  No matter what, always try to persuade. As long as Duan Chong can join the Embroidered Clothes Department, and through Cao Xin's initial intelligence network, as well as his superb latent ability obtained from the 'Primitive Immortal World', it is likely that Duan Chong will be able to shine in the Xijing Department.

  The higher the Duan Chong climbs, the more powerful he is.

  As a disciple, Cao Ren gets more benefits.

   And Cao Xin can also follow suit.

  Not to mention anything else, just the inside information can make Cao Xin like a fish in water.

  …
